So I am pretty much incapable of walking past a display of nail polishes without wanting to buy one of them. Sometimes I can resist but yesterday I was tempted by two, what can I say, they were on offer! After much deliberation I decided to try one from the Barry M Silk collection first. I got a lilac-y colour and, not really knowing what to expect, I was pleasantly surprised when I painted it on. It has a nice smooth, matte finish with a slight shimmer. It was however a bit too pale for my liking to have just that on my nails so I decided on random purple stripes to complement it. I then painted Avon's matte look topcoat over everything to match the original 'silk' finish. I've not used the topcoat before and was again pleasantly surprised. It paints on pearlescent over the glossy nail polish but after a minute has a completely matte, slightly shimmery finish. Definitely something I need to experiment with more!
